Introduction.
Cognitive and learning theories are among many the many ways a person obtains knowledge. Cognitive styles describe how the individual acquires knowledge (cognition) and processes information (conceptualization). In general, they affect the way information is obtained, sorted, and utilized. Cognitive style is usually described as a stable and persistent personality dimension which influences attitudes, values, and social interaction. Components of learning styles are the cognitive, affective, and physiological elements, all of which may be strongly influenced by a person's cultural background. Learning styles (theories) give an understanding of the process and product of learning. In most situations the terms cognitive and learning styles are used interchangeably by different authors, but there is a difference between them. Generally, cognitive styles are more related to theoretical or academic research, while learning styles are more related to practical applications. .
Learning theories are factors directly affecting students' learning processes.
